My name shows up on friends Apple watches as my old email address (linked to my Apple account but I can’t use the email anymore as I don’t have that hotmail account) and when my friends try to reply to the completing all my rings notification it says ‘message send failure’. I can send messages to them but they can’t to me - please help my friends to see my name as my name not email and how they can send me messages!!
Apple Watch SE, watchOS 7
Have you already updated your Apple ID to match your current email address?

That would the first thing to do. I believe you will also need to drop the current sharing with your friends and then add them again. That would be a safe bet anyways, making sure your address is the right one at their end too.
They will see your name in activity sharing only if the entry matches an address in their contact books.
